Is anyone using saddlebag liners so their stuff in the bags does not fall out or roll around much? If so, what are your using?

Found some Coleman Cooler Bags at Wally World for a very reasonable price. I wasn't looking for "fancy" but for "functional". The bags fit nicely in my saddlebags. With attached carrying straps and velcro closures they sure work great!

Here's the info!

If they are the ones that have "F6B" on them I bought a pair, they look nice and it will be nice to grab them out of the bags and carry into the motel or whatever.

They have worked well the few times I have used them and fit nicely.

So, I installed some stretchy material that I got off of ebay. It keeps things from falling out and trying to break my hinges. I'm glad I closed the bag slowly that time :yikes:

I plan on replacing what I have with some stretchy cargo netting with about 1" holes. I think it will look better and let me see through it easier. But, this is doing the job well for now.

Here is what I have:

I like that. Is it something that you made from the drag specialties material or did you order it made to fit your bike?

Have to admit that I'm leaning towards the Bestem bags, they really look good and durable. For those that installed the lid organizer, how does it attach to the lid?

I don't use my Bestems 'daily', but they should be tuff enuff to outlast me,,,

I believe the Gen 1 Wing lid organizers mount w/fasteners. Gen 2 Wings, (Like our 6's) attach w/Velcro I believe. As smooth as the inner lid surface is, the ~right~ Velcro will stick like it was molded into the lid. (That's a GOOD thing!!!) :yes:

I don't have the lid organizers as I really don't have anything to put in 'em,,, (Insert 'empty pockets' smiley here!!!)

The cargo keepers are made of a reinforced epoxy or polyester. Very strong & light and fit like a glove. Chrisco has made this unit to just insert in the bag and both fit like a glove (no drilling or fasteners needed). They are black and the inside finish is super smooth.
I am told the generation 2 GL-1800 bags are identical to the FB-6 bags :shrug:. Once installed you wonder why Honda didn't think of it.
The Drag specialities material is something I added (made for lining saddle-bags & trunks). It is amazing material. Super strong with a felt like finish and the opposite side is like sticky back on fuzzy Velcro. It can be applied around compound curves as it can be stretched where needed during application. I applied the Drag Speciality materials to my cargo keepers with no bunching up or bulges. The secret is not to hurry and plan every move as you apply.
You don't need the Drag Speciality material but I think it looks cool .notworthy..
If you have any doubt about the Cargo Keepers fitment, give them a call.
I was going to purchase an F6-B as a second bike until the paint issue reared its ugly head.
I rode a demo for a few miles (bad boy accelerated to over 100MPH easily) and loved the machine. It is much easier to handle than my Wing.
I just wish Honda would listen to its customers and add a model with ABS brakes and cruise control :041:

I was all set to buy Honda's official F6B bag liners but I didn't like the way they fit in the compartments. The dealership carried some generic bags for Gold Wings and they fit much better and were less than half the price. I've been very happy with them so far.

The lid organizers are held in place by velcro….

Great idea. How do you fasten the material inside the bags? How can I find the material on ebay? Thanks.

How do you have the netting attached?

Hi Guys,
This is the stretchy netting that I bought off ebay. You get 5 pieces for $9. I like it for the covers, but not sure that I like it for the bags. They were a bit short (unless you stretched a bunch), so I cut one up and added it to two others to make them a bit longer.

Here is the ad: No affiliation:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/281281319631?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I attached them with sticky sided wire holders. They were smaller than I expected, but that made it easier to find places to put them. So far, most of them are holding. I may switch to hooks at some point.

Here is the ad for those: 100 for $6:

I might try installing one netting to separate the back of the bag. There looks like there are some decent mounting points right behind the openings. We'll see how that goes ...

Here is what they look like installed in the cover:

Those wire ties are handy little buggers!!! Used 'em for all sorts of projects. Homer Depot has something similar. Forget how much I paid,,,

I'm warming up pretty quick to Valks idea here!

The pre-made bins look very nice, but w/ 2 bikes to outfit, the .batman-smilie."VALKNETS".batman-smilie. direction could prove to be a whole lot more economical!!

Hmmm,,, More thought required,,,,

Net material,,,, Might need to be a hair longer,,,What else can I find here at the house that might work,,,,

Hmm,,, I KNOW!!!!! :icon_biggrin:

Er,,,, Well,,,

On second thought, Ma might not like it if I cut up her new fishnets and strung 'em out across our bags,,,

If you were to "Accidentally" rip them during.....extracurricular activities....then you could recycle them. It's a win/win!
